Condition Report

Very Good. Bore is Bright with some dust that should clean to Very Bright with sharp rifling. Metal finish shows some light scratches, along with multiple nicks on the flanks of the cylinder with brown patina forming in losses. Casehardened finish remains strong. Grip finish is flaking on the edges with some light mars and scuffs. Medallions are tarnished. Action shows good timing.
